Something I learned a long time ago as a child, which sounds trite but still holds true.
Two wrongs do not make a right.
Freddy Gray was a small-time hood with a lengthy rap sheet of drug busts and petty crimes.
But there is no way in hell that a suspect being transported to jail for such crimes should wind up having his spine severed.
There is no conflict in saying both are wrong.
Throw the rioting and looting on top of that and you can say that three wrongs don’t make a right.
Unless the injury was caused by the victim thrashing around while being transported because he ingested the heroin he was dealing.
And, pooooor Freddie would never have been in the back of a police van if he hadn't been dealing drugs. He wouldn't have been forced into the van if he hadn't run from police.
